Dan and JC,
if the minister was trying to appear holy for his own reasons, then that verse applies, but if he was praying what God laid upon his heart then it doesn't. Only he and God know what his intentions were. And that verse only means that you are not to pray to make yourself look holy, but rather because it is something that should be done. There are times when going to a private place to pray is appropriate, but there are times when it is appropriate in public as well.


I have heard this prayer before, I believe it was delivered a year or two ago but I know it is nothing brand new. And I noticed how instead of attacking what the prayed, the attacks where directed at him and religion in general - how interesting.
